Cool update for all you mad minigeoggers...well, cool for us because of how interesting it is, but not so cool for those who lived through it extremely early this morning...there was a magnitude 5.2 on the Richter scale earthquake at around 1 am today, centred on the village of Holton cum Beckering, about 15 miles northeast of Lincoln. The quake is the largest to affect the UK since the 1984 Lleyn Peninsula earthquake, which measured 5.4.
But what was the cause??? The first student to find any member of the Geography department before the end of next week with the correct answer, will receive a special prize.
Also, remember to check out the flash earth at the bottom of the page for further information about the quake.
